    Not really an awful lot to do in Liverpool.. try the beatles tour down on the docks , you could do a tour of the stadium, you could visit the cavern and you could eat in Cafe Sport which is nice for kids.

    Was over at the weekend and after years of meaning to do it finally went up the radio city tower gallery. Well worth doing. The views across the city and over the Mersey are stunning. Cost £5 per adult and i think £2.50 per child. You get a leaflet with a map of the various sites across the site for when you go up.

    The amount of times that I have been over there and I never realized that you
    go up to the Radio City tower.At £5 it's great value considering that new building in London costs £22 I think to visit.That was a class picture you posted on FB Niall and I will certainly do that on one of my next trips.

    What about hopping on a train if the weather is good and take the kids for a day out in blackpool . It takes about an haour and half on the train if you don't have any changes .

    Don't go anywhere near Blackpool unless you want to introduce your kids to every person that has ever appeared on the Jeremy Kyle show. Think Pheonix Park on Saturday night
